Simon: /* Legacy Materials */ github link edit

==Latest News==

=== July 2016 ===

We've switched back to Perl and are now using [http://www.catalystframework.org Catalyst] as the underlying framework. It requires a lot of extra Perl modules, but these can be installed quite easily even if you don't have root access (in fact, it's recommended not to install them system-wide).

== Older News ==

We switched briefly to developing the framework in Python, all original Perl materials are available at the bottom of this page.

Installation

2014-12-22T19:52:25Z

Simon: /* Database */ Added information about running the application

== Pre-requisites ==

A working installation of Perl, including the CPAN module.

MySQL (or another database supported by Dancer)

=== Perl modules ===

RPGWNN requires a few Perl modules to be installed in addition to
the core modules that come with any modern Perl installation.

We've tried to keep it to a minimum by using the Dancer micro
web application framework which itself has very few requirements.
Unfortunately as more features were added, the list of dependencies
became rather longer than hoped for.

PSGI is an interface between Perl web applications and web servers,
and Plack is a Perl module and toolkit that contains PSGI middleware,
helpers and adapters to web servers.

Information about Dancer can be found at [http://perldancer.org/ perldancer.org]

Information about Plack can be found at [http://plackperl.org/ plackperl.org]

=== Automatic installation of prerequisites ===

The "quick" method is to install the RPGWNN Bundle found in this
distribution. The only downside is that it may unneccessarily
upgrade modules that you may already have installed on your system.

$ cd lib && perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::RPGWNN'

=== Manual installation ===

If you don't want to do the automated method, you can install the key
modules manually. Specifically, these modules should provide any dependencies that are also required.

* Dancer
* Plack
* Template (Template Toolkit)
* YAML::Any (replacement for YAML)

Installation of these modules and their dependencies can be done
(assuming you have CPAN installed) using the following command.

$ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Plack; install Dancer; install Template; install YAML::Any;'

== Source installation ==

Clone the master repository from Github

$ git clone https://github.com/rpgwnn/framework.git

Then change into the framework directory for the later commands.

$ cd framework

== Database ==

As a MySQL administrator account, you need to create a database and grant
permissions to the user.

By default, we use the database name "rpg_db", with a username of
"rpg_user" and password of "rpg_pass"
If you wish to change these defaults (and you should probably change
at least the password) simply replace them in the instructions below.

mysql> CREATE DATABASE rpg_db;
mysql> GRANT ALL ON rpg_db.* TO 'rpg_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'rpg_pass';

If all is well, you should be able to run the following command at
a shell prompt and connect to the database.

$ mysql -urpg_user -prpg_pass rpg_db

If you change the database details, also ensure that config.yml is
updated with the new information.

Next, run the database schema deployment script to create the table
structure.

'''******* WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING ********'''

This step '''WILL''' destroy any tables that have already been created.

$ perl scripts/deploy_db_schema.pl

Next we need to create the basic map - due to database foreign key constraints, you can only create a new character if there is a map tile for them to start in (which makes sense really if you think about it).

$ perl scripts/create_map.pl

== Running it ==

If everything above has completed successfully, you should be able to run the following command

$ plackup -p 8003 bin/app.pl

and then access http://localhost:8003/ - from there, you can create an account, create a character and start playing as that character.
